What driver are you using for it? I have a WF-3620 and WF-3640
all-in-ones, and I discovered that the driver packaged with Fedora
doesn't work. I had to download a driver from Epson instead. This, even
though ostensibly the Fedora driver has a newer version. This latter
fact I didn't discover until I realized that my printer quit working
every time I did an update, so I had to add exclude=epson* to dnf.conf
to keep dnf from replacing the Epson-downloaded driver with the
Fedora-packaged one on each update.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for your note. I'm using a driver I downloaded from Epson's own site. The driver part seems to work ok. I noticed that I hadn't unpacked & installed the scanner "bundle" - one would assume that a package for an all-in-one would install all parts...... However, following Epson's instructions doesn't seem to do anything.....

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a button on a printer which sends a "here I am" message to all stations on the LAN?????f

Thanks again for your help

Dave
